Is Mancini a bit biased toward Balo?

[dref619]

aye, he is, the bastard. sack the manager.

ffs

I dont know if he is biased towards Balo, but he is definitely less critical of him than of Dzeko.

Today first half - Balo missed two clear cut chances.

If Dzeko did that - he'd be off at 50th minute (no later). But not Balo. So what happens? He scores.

That's where IMO Mancini is wrong with Dzeko - I dont think he is giving him a fair chance like he should - he has very little patience with him (if Dzeko screws up first one or two shots - he's gone off the pitch).

Is Dzeko the only reason you jumped on the City bandwagon?

FWIW, Dzeko has started all but two of our seven league games, Balotelli one.

And this is despite him being inferior to Balotelli in every department besides his aerial threat.

Dzeko has also proven he is no different to Balotelli in the professionalism stakes either, his self-indulgent strop in Munich removing his falsely earned perception as the consummate professional - he has previous in this respect during his time at Wolfsburg.

That has now removed any justification for him starting over Balotelli.

Balotelli has a superior touch, a superior strike, moves the ball much more efficiently and twice as quickly, and has vastly superior movement on and off the ball. He is the superior finisher and is a vastly more naturally gifted player.

Once Balotelli finds his form and maintains it, Dzeko won't get a sniff - and we'll be a better side for it.

It's also worth mentioning that despite Mario's unpredictable and often immature behaviour, he actually respects his manager, admires him even. I genuinely believe that we're seeing the beginnings of a fruitful relationship for Manchester City Football Club, and the blossoming of a incredibly talented young player, and it excites me.

By that stage Dzeko will be tripping over balls to his feet in the Bundesliga and you'll have denounced your 'support' of City in favour of his new club, or Real Madrid.

^Ironic post in a thread about bias.

Edin this, Edin that.

Mancini isn't thinking that way. It really isn't all about Edin, and it never will be.

He isn't punishing him. He is usually not rewarding the man who comes on.

He wants the result. He wants fresh legs, he wants to stretch a defence, he wants to hold the ball and relieve pressure, he wants to defend from the front, he wants to run at a clumsy centre-half, he wants someone to play half on the wing, he wants someone unpredictable, he wants to make a marker's job redundant, he wants to save the player for later, etc.

Anyway, more than once, I've seen Edin miss sitters, not score, and last the ninety. Because Mancini wants someone tall, wants a threat from the corner, wants someone to capitalise on good wing attacking, wants a good finisher, etc, etc.

Mancini's idea is usually that players manage themselves, stay always hungry, confident and ready. He rarely gives people games to help them in this way. The team is always about the result, and fitness.

fuckin hell balotelli has a top game and stl gets 'slated' ycmiu

 

[Walter]

From Bellamy, Robinho, Ade and now Tevez. (Dzeko to some extent)
It seems Mancini always has a soft spot for Balo. No matter what Balo does.

Whats Balo done?

Not be born in Bosnia they bastard.

How many languages do you speak?

On topic: yes, it is quite obvious that Balotelli has preferential treatment.

Agreed, super post, Dzeko will score goals but Balo has more talent in his left toe - just needs to show it more often.

Worth mentioning that Balo has NEVER had a run of games up top in his City career, been sick of seeing him stuck out on the left - no surprises that he got into the game the minute Aguero went off, did sweet fanny adams out on the left for the first half hour or so.

You're an idiot. And before you ask, I'm Mancunian and supported City all my life.

 

[SWP's back]

So idiots are too idiotic to realise theyre idiots.....Dont know if i like that ;)

But if you know you're an idiot, like I do, then you are automatically precluded from being one.

Aliens are the biggest idiots..I mean they dont want us to know that theyre here so fly around at night...with their lights on.. twats.

Weird that everyone else thinks it's a top post.
